Trees For Life
Allwag Promotions supports award winning conservation charity Trees For Life
Allwag Promotions has established its own expanding grove of native trees, supporting the restoration of the Calendonian Forest in the Scottish Highlands. This is as part of a scheme which helps create a fantastic habitat for wildlife and people, as well as being a simple, positive step in the fight against climate change.
Trees for life is a pioneering charity in ecological restoration. It aims to restore the Calendonian Forest to an area of 1,500 square kilometres in the Higlands west of Inverness. Only 1% of the original Calendonian forest ,which covered much of the Scottish Higlands. remains after centuries of overgrazing and timber production. Since planting its first trees in 1991, Trees for Life has planted over 650,000 trees.
Our Allwag grove will support Trees for Life's new commitment to plant a quarter of a million trees during 2008 and 2009. The ambitious target is the charity's latest pledge to the United Nations Environment Programme's Billion Trees Campaign - a global push to address climate change by encouragin people, organisations and businesses to plant seven billion trees by the end of 2009.
Throughout the months of January - March 2009 we are running a campaign to help plant more trees in our grove. For every order placed for recycled promotional merchandise we will plant an extra tree in our grove. We want to plant an extra 50 trees between January and end of March 2009. If you would like to find out how you can help achieve this goal please contact Ciarra at ciarra@allwag.co.uk
